Sleepless nights

9 august follow up: waoh I saw in the papers a commander proposed to his girlfriend after the NDP celebrations. She is 24!

Win Already LOR!

It's in Aug 10 straits times front page:

As the spectators left the grounds, 28 year old commander surprised his 24 year old girlfriend by getting down on his knees, and presenting her with a half-carat diamond ring.

And the big screens displayed Miss Vee E-Ying's picture, and the words "Will You Marry Me?"

Her immediate answer: "yes"

Then the guy still ya-ya and said, "I don't think anyone can top this proposal, since this is the last NDP at the National Stadium."

HAhahaaha...

Everybody say, AWWWWWWWWWW......

(Oh man... where's my cam!? I can't post the article le....)

Anyway, why my title lydat?

Coz I haven't been able to fall asleep until after 4am for the past FIVE days leh... and the latest I woke up the following day is only 12.30 in the afternoon. The rest of the time I wake up before 10am wan.

I feel something is taking over me... It's not that I study until very late. I want to sleep but I just can't. My eyelids don't wanna close, my mind doesn't wanna rest.

And the most surprising thing is that I keep thinking of table tennis. Seems like it's that I'm worried about the most. FFfffffffffff... "Study more important" hor? Then why u keep emphasizing on me to "compete!", "must win!"? WAAAAHHHHH!!!

This stuff doesn't work on me de... I'm not the kind that strive on stress pls. The more u push me, the further back I'll step. :'( *I hope after bloggin this, tonight I can fall asleep easier. Please please please.*

Anyway, not everyhing is going haywire wan la. I'm still willing to eat out ok =D Just now went to Admiralty's Lucky Star coffee shop for dinner and den to "Admiralty West Road" to watch the sunset! Actually the sun already set la. Hahaa but the sky was displaying a light show of reddish hues. It's a beautiful place down there... So we sat in the car and watched the streaks of clouds turn redder while the sky turned darker. And across the shore, is Johor Bahru! Yea! We were overlooking the straits, on the left was the causeway (very little cars) and the backdrop was the romantic sunset...

Haha, took my mind off things for that 15 min la.

On Thursday, we went Farmart's Aussie Wine place for western food. (Eh, just now oso western food leh, buay sian man...) Also another relaxing place. hahaz... Must put this face *^-^* altho i dunno wad the heaven it means.

And thank the stars for Class 95's No. 1 weekend!

Ok, time to go!

9 August

My day started at 12.32pm (time of awakening). Hahaha! Coz I slept after 3am... too excited about National Day le!

*^-^ If u believe me*

Anyway.... Today I feel really different. I feel homely. Hahaha- the british sense, not the american sense.

I wanted to capture the sunset of 9 Aug 06 but dammit! I took a tad to long to send an sms and missed the freakin sun- down moment! Singapore's skyline hor... somehing u love... to hate.

No la, just kidding... But I actually dashed up 4 floors leh... Oso cudn't catch the sun before it sunk behind the block :(

Today's newspapers also special one. I absolutely love the contents inside...

For example, mindyourbody brought me through a photographic tourof the past of singapore and showed me how fortunate I am to be born in my era

The cover page's text says:

You've come a long way, baby
In 1950, 82 in every 1,000 babies never made it.
In 1999, 2.5 in every 1000 didn't.
In 1957, Singaporeans could expect to live to 60.
In 1999, they knew they could make it to 79.
Between 1950 and 2000, the nation licked tuberculosis,
fatal diarrheoal diseases and infections in newborns,
thought it began succumbing to cancer, heart disease and
stroke, all the results of a life of affluence.
They say money can't buy health, but it can pave the way
to better nutrition and sanitation, build great health-care
facilities, and provide for an army of doctors and nurses to
be trained.With the 41 years taken care of, here's to
your good health (and another 41 more).

Whoever wrote the above is my idol already... Hahahaha.. he/she parctically summed up mindyourbody.

And then there's yesterday's Digital Life which talked abt meme (say "meem"). Don't ask. After reading the article twice, I still don't get wats a MEME. Anyway what i get is that it started from "... a chain letter of sorts, is making the rounds on the internet, with netizens writing, podcasting and vodcasting about what makes them Singaporean."

Anyway, here's whats mentioned in the article.

Wah Lao Eh! SO SO true! That makes My Mum a True Blue Singaporean!

...Mr Brown said: "Sometimes I get a parking fine, because I tear parking coupons based on carpark time zone which is 10 minutes faster than local time."

Mr Brown, I think u shud meet my dad. He's probably ur alter ego.

And

As Handsel (handsel.blogpot.com) puts in his entry: "I take the MRT everywhere.Now I can repeat the terrorist warning messages in English, Mandarin, Malay and even Tamil (at least the numbers 999)"

Haha! Handsel my friend, welcome to THE CLUB.

=D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!

I LURVE U!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Beginning of the end

haiyo, forgive me for starting off with that cliche as the title.

But then it's really beginning le... the exams are coming in ONE week's time. ONE WEEK leh! Last friday after the night cycle with pat, we went to kah's house.

I told them, "Waaah my exams coming liao...."

Kah Hwee: Ours also

Me: Mine in TWO WEEKS TIME LOR

Kah Hwee: Ok that's "really" coming...

Pat *not paying attention*: Ya lor, mine is in 40 days

Me *sucks in air and grits teeth*: Mine FOURTEEN DAYS LEHHHH (eyes big big)

Pat: ORH. OKAY OKAY..

Now very good. Even Better. one. more. week.

Anyways today we wore BLAZER to class for RWPS (my group winnie, shups and limin) and everyone shot EYES-OF-FIERY at us. HAHA no la. Not so serious :P

Den the lecturer blew her top out out the blue today. Its like shuping said, she see this as the laaaaast opportunity to tell us off. So she anyhow fa pi qi. But I dun wanna write abt it le altho it wasn't justified. Coz there are some pple who thinks it was right of her to do so. some. hahaha ;)

For the last day of the sem, the day is considered great la.

My achievements for the week: I survived thru ALL the presentations with nearly ALL the teachers commenting that our group's presentation skills are ICHIBAN!(Heheheheh, so says yixiang too... and I told him "I know." AHahahaha!) I managed to try ALL the home made chocolate donuts from the vegetarian stall le! I also made it thru ALL the modules WITHOUT A SNGLE "A"!

Applause for me please.

Then after school, JS tried to bang Weibin in the toilet.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! SORRY got typo error... It should be:

Then after school, JS tried to bang Weibin inTO the toilet.

Very big difference hor the 2 sentences. hahahahahahaha.. Anyway those who saw them will know what I mean. HEhehe.

But then dunnoe wat went on inside the toilet la, coz went they came out, weibin distanced himself from JS. Mmmh...

Table Tennis

This week was the last training le. Quite sad-ed. No, Significantly sad-ed. I don't care how many times I've said it, I'm still gonna say. The coach is really very nice! He's like coach-cum-mentor-cum-friend-uncle etc etc...

And he like really can read minds.

Him: Hey U come here every week is to laugh at me one izzit?

Me: Ya. I come here for therapy from sch stress ma.

Him: AHahahahahaha!

Coz I was seating on the floor watching him teach xianping the short serve. Then he walked away and said, "wah i'm really very hungry leh... I smell the chicken (from KFC)."

I said, "I dun smell anything."

He said, "U dun smell anything? The reason is very simple."

I said, "What?"

He said, "Kan wo men de shen cai jiu zhi dao liao (look at our size and u will noe)" pointing back and forth to me and his tummy.

I went " AHAHAHAHAAAHHAHAHH!"

I dunoe why leh, but I find it farni. It's impossible for me not to laugh at every training.

Thats why I really regret not joining last year lor. Not only can I hon my skills, I also get free laughing therapy. hey I dun usually admit regretting anything one hor so this time i really regret :(
